“
Europe as a political entity will either be united, or will not be at all.
— Donald Tusk
The European Union, often shortened as the EU, is an economic and political union between multiple European states, established by Germany and France in 1993. He have his own currency, called the Euro.
Combined, he has the second-largest economy behind USA (of course) and has the largest single market in the world. He is a member of G20 and is sometimes even being described as a (potential) superpower. With many of his major achievements, he is seen as an inspiration for other supernational unions such as ASEAN (not really, ASEAN formed earlier), African Union, and Vodka Union.
The European Union is sometimes used to represent Europe as a whole.
History
After WWII, European integration was seen as an antidote to the extreme nationalism which had devastated the continent. 1952 saw the creation of the European Coal and Steel Community, which was declared to be a first step in the federation of Europe.
In 1957, the founding members signed the Treaty of Rome, which created the European Economic Community and established a customs union.
They also signed another pact creating the European Atomic Energy Community (Euratom) for cooperation in developing nuclear energy. EEC and Euratom were created separately from ECSC, although they shared the same courts and the Common Assembly. In 1965 an agreement was reached and on 1 July 1967, the Merger Treaty created a single set of institutions for the three communities, which were collectively referred to as the European Communities.
Recently, EU is going though a series of crises, like the Syrian refugees, Brexit, Eurozone, and the War in Donbas , a military intervention between Russia and Ukraine.
